We call this episode, lovingly, the auntie auntie auntie episode (or the niece niece nibling episode) shouted at the top of our lungs. We scream their names in the key of care, of reclaiming our bodies, lives, and pleasure(s) for ourselves (and our time). In this episode we talk with Anna Almore and Erica or ET, two friends and educators, about their moments of what Anna calls deviant caretaking, the act of choosing pleasure, accountability to one's deepest self over what work as teachers, teacher-educators, and students demands of one's self. Anna and Erica share about lessons learned one night at a strip club and releasing themselves from the disciplining of settler colonialism's projects of school, capitalism, misogynoir, and respectability—led by a long inheritance of aunties who showed them how to do thee things. And as nieces and aunties themselves, they reflect on what they now teach another generation, finding that the lessons and blessings their nieces and relatives give them to be the most urgent ones of all.

Respectability politics is based on European beauty standards for the most part. So by pushing these politics, we are accepting the disrespect we face based on stereotypes and reinforcing the narrative of these negative stereotypes. https://www.instagram.com/p/CPQcw-tBi90/?utm_medium=share_sheet https://www.instagram.com/p/CPQcw-tBi90/?utm_medium=share_sheet https://www.britannica.com/topic/wig https://www.instagram.com/p/CO3gwuAlqwa/?utm_medium=copy_link https://www.instagram.com/p/CPMU_izBT8h/?utm_medium=copy_link Video link here: https://youtu.be/M4OL0u88cW8 (Shout out to Sholayy)https://youtu.be/yQO7XoANYb8 https://youtu.be/2teqoyPe3TU https://youtu.be/mEy9ZKf5NOo https://youtu.be/2teqoyPe3TU https://www.instagram.com/tv/CPGRdHvnlsy/?utm_medium=copy_link https://www.instagram.com/tv/CPnt7pwgSCi/?utm_medium=copy_link https://youtu.be/mEy9ZKf5NOo https://youtu.be/yQO7XoANYb8 Monique's Video: https://youtu.be/o34wSt0AGLU Email: africanaesthetics26@gmail.com --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
In this episode I go off the deep end about how I annoyed I am whenever I see people, particularly fellow white women, say “what's possible for them is possible for you.” This is just not true, it's harmful, dangerous, and can fuel comparison, anxiety, and depression. It also completely lacks an analysis of the impacts of white supremacy, patriarchy, and ongoing colonialism on our lives, businesses, and outcomes. I want to shout out Ericka Hart and Ebony Donnley for their incredible work that inspires me always and particularly this episode. Their podcast “From Hoodrat to Headwrap” is a wealth of information and I encourage you to listen and support. Their latest episode, "Our Election System is Based on 5 Black People Being Worth 3 White, But the US is Definitely a Democracy." I also discuss how therapy has helped me so much and how support for our mental, spiritual, physical, emotional, and psychological health is so important. I want to share Rachel Cargle's, The Loveland Foundation, for any Black women and girls who want accessible therapy. Also, Better Help is an option for accessible and affordable mental health services/therapy. If you'd like to chat with me and book a Clarity Call, please do it! I would love to connect with you.

Pour cet épisode, trois films d’actualité réalisés par des femmes racisées abordés au prisme du regard féminin, concept développé par Iris Brey dans son dernier ouvrage. 00’00 - Introduction sur le regard féminin, puis Adam. 20’42 - Un divan à Tunis 35’20 - Queen & Slim [Note 1 des podcasteuses] Cet épisode a été enregistré le 27 février, soit le même jour que l’annonce de la condamnation d’Harvey Weinstein, un jour avant l’infamante cérémonie des Césars, et une quinzaine de jours avant le confinement. Il y a aussi quelques informations anachroniques de sorties ciné. [Note 2 des podcasteuses] Si cet épisode sort seulement trois mois plus tard c’est parce que le confinement et le coronavirus a eu raison de nous. On avait vraiment autre chose à faire pour survivre à ce moment là. [Note sur Iris Brey] Son livre sur le regard féminin va faire date. Un article des Inrocks parle de sa réception accablante en France par la critique cinéma masculin·iste. Comme c’est étrange. https://www.lesinrocks.com/2020/05/15/cinema/actualite-cinema/pourquoi-la-cinephilie-traditionnelle-rejette-t-elle-le-livre-diris-brey/ Voir ces films en VOD : - Adam est sur Canal, Universciné et Orange (liens sur Allociné) - Un divan à Tunis est sur Arte et Canal. - Queen & Slim est sur Netflix et Amazon. Pour l’excellente analyse du film par le podcast Hoodrat to Headwrap: https://open.spotify.com/episode/78pHwXkpzb1sbh3wx2iNLC?si=Yii5gTFFS-aAm9RSpwbHAg Un grand merci à Laura Nsafou pour nous avoir fait découvrir le podcast Hoodrat to headwrap !

Mon cliche africain du jour est un nombre, le nombre de proverbes africains qui parlent de la persévérance, du courage et de la nécessite de combattre. Parfois je me demande pourquoi il y a si peu de proverbes africains qui parlent de fleurs, de la beauté de l’eau qui dort etc… dans le lot, ma préférée c’est ce proverbe sud-africain qui dit je cite, « La persévérance est un talisman pour la vie ». Et je n’ai pas pu m’empêcher de sourire quand notre capitaine du jour, a évoqué son héroïne noire préférée. Si certains doutaient de l’africanité d’Harriet Tubman, et bien maintenant le mystère est levé.
YOUR WRAP, YOUR STYLE, YOUR IDENTITY My African cliché of the day is question to you: do you think that if a White American white lady chooses to wear a headwrap, it is cultural appropriation? Is it paying tribute? Is it respect? Is it free advert for that culture? Cultural appropriation refers to when a dominant culture appropriates the codes of a dominated culture, either the colonized peoples or the oppressed minorities. Is it respect when it’s done for fun, and money, while erasing the cultural side of it? Like wearing a Palestinian keffiyeh patterns without ever mentioning the pain of the people? Is it tribute when it’s all about everything but the burden, when it is like entering and leaving a culture without bearing the burden and using the codes without suffering while retaining one’s privileges? Isn’t a stealing when big brands use those cultures materials and symbols to produce gadgets and goodies to enrich themselves and their advertising icons?
L'appropriation culturelle fait référence à une situation ou une culture dominante s'approprie les codes d'une culture dominée, par exemple des peuples colonisés ou des minorités opprimées. Mon cliché africain du jour est question : est-ce de l'appropriation culturelle quand une femme blanche américaine blanche choisit de porter un foulard africain comme on le voit de plus en plus ? Est-ce un hommage ? Est-ce une marque de respect ? Est-ce de la vulgarisation ? Est-ce du respect quand c'est fait pour le plaisir et l'argent, tout en effaçant le côté culturel ? Comme le fait de porter des motifs de keffieh palestiniens sans jamais mentionner la douleur de ce peuple ? Est-ce un hommage quand on peut presque entrer et sortir d’une culture et en utiliser les codes, sans jamais en porter le fardeau, sans jamais souffrir et tout en conservant ses privilèges ? N'est-ce pas un vol lorsque les grandes marques utilisent ces matériaux et symboles culturels pour produire des articles pour s'enrichir elles et leurs icônes publicitaires ?
Acknowledging how we are complicit in harm towards marginalized groups that are more disadvantaged than us is key to gaining freedom for all. Social media sheds light on the stories that we often would never hear or see but there are still stories that are being hidden about violence on the LGBTQ community specifically Black Transwomen. The humanity is being stripped by homophobic people, ignorant people and privileged people like cis-gender black women who are not checking other groups when we hear them spewing ignorance that will further marginalize them. Transgender people have higher suicide attempt rates than many marginalized groups have due to this group being more targeted and not protected. Transgender people often do not have the same access to work, housing, and basic necessities due to policies and people's personal biases that are imposed upon them.

WHITE CIS MEN HAVE COMMITTED MORE MASS SHOOTINGS IN THE US THAN ANY OTHER GROUP...but I'm sleep. Black people are murdered and it’s an idea for a storyboard for a rap music video without a trigger warning. Black people are not paying attention, while the world continues to kill us. We only pay attention when black cis men tell us to. Listen to them. Black cis men know what we need. And we should listen. They are geniuses. They win Pulitzers for their music without having to reckon with the misogynoir conveniently overlooked to get them there. And slavery was a choice. But, just hear him out. And he’s the King so he doesn’t give head. But he is not really Black, so it’s different. We spend hours talking through our pain from being re-traumatized and he “just wanted to make good music”. He could care less that people actually died. But but they are just destroying a Black man’s legacy. He got his money And will continue to And we will sit by and watch him dance On the tv Never at a rally And keep giving him money for the value of his meta distraction We get tired of calling him in He doesn’t listen Why talk. He’s talking. Just let him speak! Just a body on his way to fame To the white girl across the room We are just a body To be used At the cookout on 4th of July At his leisure Our pain is a joke And a moment, Not happening all the time.

So join us in parsing that out on Hoodrat to Headwrap's first episode of our Gamesgiving Series with... ***Chani Nicholas*** Don't miss this generous game give out on what the hell is happening in the heavens, and what it has to do with Mesopotamia, hippies in the sixties, white supremacy and most importantly, you. www.chaninicholas.com Recommended, Referenced Reading: https://www.nytimes.com/2018/01/01/arts/how-astrology-took-over-the-internet.html Bonus: Techgnosis by Erik Davis (thank me later)
